Chapter 734 Cloud Peak (12)

The second uncle is carrying a backpack

Still holding a sickle in his hand, he bent over and walked towards the back mountain with big strides.

Just as Zhang Feng came to the intersection, he immediately greeted the second uncle with a smile.

"Second uncle, are you going to the ground?"

"No, I'm going to go to Yunwuding to dig some bamboo shoots." The second uncle replied with a slight smile.

"Cloudtop? Are you going alone?"

Yunwuding is the steepest mountain on the edge of Qinglong Mountain, with an altitude of more than 500 meters and is shrouded in clouds and mist all year round, so it got its name.

The most important thing is that the mountain is steep, and there is only one dangerous path leading to the top of the mountain. Even the young and strong in the village often fall down there, so when Zhang Feng heard that the old man wanted to go up the mountain alone, he was immediately taken aback.

"Hehe, it's okay. Didn't I go up often in previous years? And the old man running the mountain will go too." The second uncle didn't care at that time. In the eyes of rural people, no matter how rugged the mountain road is, it can't stop the footsteps of blows , What are you afraid of in danger, because it has become a habit.

"Going to the mountain, too?" Hearing that the mountain running is going to the mountain, Zhang Feng is slightly relieved. The two old people are companions, and they can take care of them when they encounter problems.

"Yes, he is waiting for me right in front!" The second uncle said with a smile.

"Second uncle, why don't I go with you, I also want to dig some bamboo shoots and try them at home. I haven't eaten bamboo shoots from Yunwuding for a long time."

Zhang Feng knew that the second uncle would definitely not give up the idea of ​​going to the mountains, and he really likes to eat bamboo shoots, especially the bamboo shoots from Yunwu Mountain, which are fresh and delicious, and the quality is better, so Zhang Feng thought about going up the mountain with the old people , so it is good to have a care.

"Hehe, hurry up then! We'll be waiting for you at the front." The second uncle was also very happy to have one more companion.

Yunwu Mountain used to be one of the villagers' favorite places to go in summer.

Because there is a wide bamboo forest on the top of Yunwu Mountain, and the bamboo shoots in the bamboo forest are very rich. In the past, this place was the favorite place for mountain runners.

The bamboo shoots here are all wild bamboo shoots, so the villagers dig them casually. Almost every time they enter the mountain, everyone can dig seventy to eighty catties, and they can sell for two yuan per catty, which is more than 100 yuan. Therefore, every summer, the top of Yunwu Mountain The bamboo shoots can bring villagers hundreds or even thousands of yuan in income.

However, with the improvement of the economic situation, especially in the past year, everyone has joined the Moon Lake Cooperative, and the monthly income is tens of thousands, so most villagers no longer have the idea of ​​venturing into the mountains to dig bamboo shoots.

However, the old people in the village are always thrifty. In the eyes of the old people, it would be a pity if the bamboo shoots were so good that they rotted in the mountains.

In fact, this is the same as the old people in the city. For a few eggs, even if it is windy or rainy, they are willing to stand in front of the supermarket all morning.

Seeing Zhang Feng hurriedly heading out with a backpack on his back, Zhang Yi asked curiously, "Brother, where are you going?"

"Go to Yunwuding to dig bamboo shoots?" Zhang Feng turned around and said with a smile.

"Ah, Yunwuding?" From Zhang Yi's point of view, the eldest brother is really willful, and he would go so far just to eat some bamboo shoots.

"How about it? Do you want to go? How about the two of us together?" Zhang Feng smiled and prepared to catch his cousin's young man. Anyway, this guy has nothing to do at home. He might as well play games with him whenever he has time. Go climb mountains, walk around.

"I... I won't..."

"Let's go, carry the hoe!"

Before Zhang Yi could finish speaking, Zhang Feng smirked, pulled his cousin away, and handed the hoe on his shoulder to him.

"Hey, brother, aren't you trying to force a strong man?" Zhang Yi said while holding a hoe and looking at Zhang Feng bitterly for a year.

"Hey, let's go, anyway, you're fine at home, hurry up, the second uncle and Master Paoshan are still waiting for us!" Zhang Feng didn't listen to Zhang Yi's explanation, he pushed him with a smile, and took the lead Go back to the mountain.

Zhang Yi smiled wryly and shook his head, gritted his teeth, picked up the hoe and hurriedly followed, what could Zhang Yi do when he encountered such a madman.

"Xiaofeng Xiaoyi, are you here?"

"It's good if you come, let's go quickly, go back early."

The second uncle and Master Paoshan waited until Zhang Feng and his brother were behind, and without any fuss, they quickly carried their baskets on their backs and walked up the mountain.

The winding mountain road became steeper and steeper, and it took about half an hour to walk.

Everyone finally came under a cliff, which is the foot of Yunwu Mountain.

The most important reason why the bamboo shoots on Yunwu Mountain can be preserved for a long time without being destructively excavated is that this section of the road is too dangerous. The straight cliff is three stories high. Only when you go up to the cliff can you find a small path. Continue to the top of the hill.

"Xiaofeng, take the ladder here and check it first!" There is a bamboo ladder just under the cliff not far away. This is the tool for everyone to go up the mountain. The ladder will be soaked in water, moldy and rotted, causing a safety hazard.

Zhang Feng put down the basket, walked to the bottom of the cliff in two or three steps, picked up the long bamboo ladder and walked over.

Run Shan Ye ended up with a bamboo ladder, carefully inspecting each step, if there is any looseness, immediately use a rope to reinforce it, if there is a broken one, replace it with a new one, because there is a clump of bamboo right next to it, so it is very convenient to obtain materials.

After careful inspection for about a quarter of an hour, I finally finished my rest.

Zhang Feng and Master Paoshan erected a bamboo ladder more than ten meters high at the foot of the mountain. Looking at the towering cliffs, Zhang Yi's legs felt weak.

"Brother, why do I feel my legs are weak?" Zhang Yi swallowed, and said to Zhang Feng with some fear.

"If you're afraid, don't go up, just go back later." Zhang Feng smiled and shook his head, this can't be forced, after all, it's still a bit dangerous.

"Ahem, let's forget it?" Zhang Yi heard Zhang Feng's words, looked at the two calm old men, and suddenly had an idea, thinking that if he didn't go up, it would be strange if he wasn't laughed at by everyone.

Therefore, Zhang Yi secretly cheered himself up, and quickly regained his confidence. After all, he grew up in the countryside and has climbed even taller and straighter trees. Can he still be afraid of these dozens of steps of bamboo ladders?
Thinking of this, Zhang Yi finally regained his composure, and his legs became stronger.

Seeing the changes in his cousin, Zhang Feng smiled slightly, and said nothing, because the countryside is like this, and there are many more dangerous things than this.

"Master Paoshan, let me go up first?" Seeing that Master Paoshan was about to go up first, Zhang Feng rushed to go first.

"That's fine, but you have to be careful!" Master Paoshan smiled and told Zhang Feng.

Zhang Feng smiled slightly, and was very confident in his physical fitness, so he tightened the straps of the pannier, and Zhang Feng climbed up the cliff step by step along the bamboo ladder.
